Title: Making Permanent the Attorney Advisor Program | |
Abstract:
The Agency is making permanent the Attorney Advisor Program to continue reducing the hearings backlog and enhance the service we provide to the public. Specifically, the attorney advisor initiative is an integral tool that permits some attorney advisors to develop claims, including holding prehearing conferences, and, in cases in which the documentary record clearly establishes a fully favorable decision is warranted, issue fully favorable decisions before a hearing is conducted. |
